All of this reminds me of the joke that charisma is that indefinable, ineffable quality that girls with big jugs have. Or in this case, CSI is that incalculable property possessed only by objects we already decided were Designed.

I dont believe in things because evidence or argument compels me to; I believe in them because I choose to.

Some of my beliefs I can make logical and/or evidential arguments for; others, I cannot, but my belief in any of them is not predicated upon being able to make such arguments. I believe what I choose; not what I must. I choose to believe in ID; I choose to believe in God, and II choose to believe in a universal, objective good.

Sigh. Another moderation queue. Yesterday I made my first comment (as DiEb), now I'm waiting for it to appear at Creating CSI with NS. Unfortunately, there isn't even a notice (your comment is awaiting moderation), so I don't know whether commenting worked at all...

I'm sorry the software is glitchy. Unfortunately I don't have the expertise to optimise it. I'll gradually try and fix the glitches, but each new fix seems to come with another downside.

ETA: I have now switched you as unmoderated at the back end, so you should be able to post straight away.

Thanks, and thanks for looking! It's absolutely possible that I botched it...

Can you try again?

I haven't saved my comment. What a pity: it was the one last edit to end all editing, the one comment which made all further comments superfluous. But let bygones be bygones - I'll mumble on in my usual manner :-)

Liz reports that kairosfocus has attempted to post at TSZ, but got caught in a spam-trap.

(I haven't bothered looking to see if she's set it free, since I might be tempted to read it, and I'm nearing the limit of my capacity for being told that Western Civilisation is on the steep slope to perdition, because chi-squared and Plato, or something)

Surely that post, from that poster, means UD has twitched its last anti-evolutionary spasm?

Well who's left?

Teh Frill, Barry, the other blind mullets and sox^^150.

I hope Lizzy sticks here arm down the S bend and pulls KF out and hangs him out to dry.

A spam trap is a fitting place for gordo.

So, I guess he figured out that the increase in the ratio of views to comments over at UD had more to do with the denominator than the numerator. He may not be smart, but he sure is slow.

She did set it free but doesn't know where it was.See this comment and the next one.

1. Will Mullings actually venture out from behind Barry's skirt and appear at TSZ?

2. If he does, how long will it take for him to complain about the poisonous atmosphere and incivility, demand an apology, and scurry back to the safer confines of UD?

Ultimately, science doesn't resolve anything anyway, IMO. ... I think there are very few ID proponents that would disagree with me on that one. Ultimately, what resolves things - towards any conclusion - is one's deep worldview, not data.
